The Elements

In the shadows of the night,
colours merge in twilight.
The mist surrounds us,
night closes in.
Slumber overtakes,
so deep within.

Invading my solitude.
floating endlessly
on fluffy white clouds.
weightless - windless
nothing stirs.
Not even,
a breeze.

A vision of colour
lit by the sun.
Rainbow puddles,
shimmering shine.

Gently stirring with soft ease,
the first morning breeze.
The mist rises upwards,
to reveal what is below.
Mist lies motionless,
Awaiting the sun's glow.

Puddles like mirrors,
all in reverse.
Till darkness transforms,
when they disperse.
